Rob Kesseler works in the liminal space between fine art, design, craft
and science. He moves easily between disciplines to engage fully with
the art and science of the world around us. From ceramics to furniture
and drawing to photography, Up Close presents his most
thought-provoking and beautiful works in a creative collage, arranged
thematically, mixing images and texts that have inspired him,
especially the exotic forms and luscious colours of the plant world.
Rob Kesseler is Professor of Ceramic Art & Design at Central Saint
Martins College of Art & Design, London. From 2001-2004 he was
NESTA Fellow at Kew and was recently made a fellow of the Royal Society
of Arts and the Linnean Society. He is currently working on a major
project for the 2010 Year of Biodiversity in collaboration with
molecular biologists at the Gulbenkian Science Institute in Lisbon in
partnership with the Botanic Garden and Vista Alegre Porcelain.
